      @GuzzarAwan 10 місяців тому

      Yeah. Structurally it was impossible for Chinese to pushing high growth often by stimulus to create Ghost cities. This Breaking point bw china and west was inevitable due to size of china. If china wud have kept going on as it is without any geopolitical harakiri like hong kong Taiwan 9 dash line etc West wud have dissolved their economy from within slowly and like japan, china wud have become dormant friend of US . Also the real eastate and ither Bubbles wud have kept on building though real benificiary wud have been the Big capitalists fo west taking back big returns onf high chinese growth . CCP knew this.
      Now they wanted to shift to Higher value chain which wud anyway put them in direct competition with West and US.
      So xinping had planned it all. Now we have to see can their companies generate same level of innovation as US. In legacy Tech Chinese have already bridged the gap.
      Also china won't become a big north Korea or USSR bcoz internet has broken boundaries. Chinese protect their cyber space from world but they allow their ppl to explore world cyber space .

Because of this it goes into convulsive spasms fighting to grow any way it can out of desperation. Tricks, gimmicks, rule changes try to stimulate the economy and prevent it from falling but they only bring temporary relief to people since, when you factor in inflation we are declining.

    • @Godzilla52
      @Godzilla52 10 місяців тому +23

      True, though I think in China's case, their slowdown is a product of government mismanagement (both from things the CCP did in previous decades and more recently from Xi's micromanaging). Structural problems with their economy that need to be reformed and the fact that the government growth policy was based on faulty population metrics (which also ties into the slew of problems created by the One Child Policy). So the housing market, lagging productivity, a rapidly aging population, declining birth rates and an authoritarian government that doesn't always address each of those problems correctly all pile onto the problem.
      Economies and public policy issues correct themselves all the time, but the issue with China is that it's economy's command oriented aspects tend to operate counter-intuitively due to the CCP's goals occasionally being at odds with the practical realities.

Sometimes these "invisble" things play in your favor and sometimes they don't. Let's not be so quick to judge others, life is much more complex than it seems.

      A kfc worker in the us make an average of 32177 dollars annually, which is equivalent of about 120000 cny in china. That being said, a average american kfc worker is more affluent than a average doctor in china, or 90% of that country's population. So instead of blaming outside environment, which american allways do, blaming sexism, rascim, socioeconomic disparity, society, blahblah for their own lazziness and incompetence, maybe it's better working yourself. Not saying everyone who failed are lazzy losers, but most of them are in the standard of chinese.

    📝 Summary of Key Points:
    📌 China's economic growth has significantly slowed down, leading to deflationary pressures, stock market losses, rising unemployment, and reduced spending on a global scale.
    🧐 The slowdown in China's economy is attributed to factors like the property crisis, strict COVID policies, geopolitical tensions, and a confidence crisis due to debt and regulatory crackdowns.
    🚀 The economic challenges in China have resulted in job losses, salary reductions, and increased financial struggles for individuals, impacting both domestic and global markets.
    💡 Additional Insights and Observations:
    💬 Quotable Moments: "This is an economy that became the world's Factory floor by driving up tons and tons of expansion and becoming this giant manufacturing Powerhouse."
    📊 Data and Statistics: Nearly one in 3 Chinese office workers reported falling salaries in 2023, the highest share in at least 6 years.
    📣 Concluding Remarks:
    The economic slowdown in China has far-reaching implications, affecting not only the country's citizens but also global markets and political dynamics. Understanding the challenges faced by China is crucial in navigating the evolving landscape of the world economy.

      Bulls on China ain’t going to be happy especially as “Sophisticated Foreign Investors” recently made these Property Developers Junk Bonds a hot commodity
      Problem is they were expecting the Chinese Central Government to backstop these Junk Bond investments
      I even had old colleagues reach out to me because I researched China back in the 1980s
      I basically told them the Chinese Central Government wasn’t about to bailout these Property Developers after cutting off money to them for over a decade
      They didn’t listen
      In China in 2008 around 70% of the people in their real estate markets were buying their 1st homes in their cities
      By 2018 around 70% of the people in their real estate markets were buying their 2nd and 3rd homes in their cities
      That’s why you are hearing about problems with their property developers these days. Because back in 2010? Their Central Government started cutting of money flow to these developers.
      Thus why you heard about Shadow Banks and Underground Economy back then, that their Government had to come into to shutdown or regulate.
      Even then, It took them almost 14 years to get their overheated real estate under control
      Heck they were about to introduce a nation wide property tax, but then trump started the trade war in 2018
      Why is their Central Government doing this?
      Because there are still a few hundred million poorer rural folk they still expect to move to the cities to join their more well off urban city folk countrymen.
      Problem is these property developers were building higher end homes, and not building the affordable homes these rural migrants will need
      In China
      Owning a home in the city you migrate to? Affects your employment, health, education and even marriage prospects don’t have a house you don’t get married
      Thus the common prosperity push and the crackdown on the overt displays of wealth in China
      Their Government probably figured out you disenfranchise the people at the bottom of your society they are the ones most likely to act out in protest

      Actually that's not necessarily true. The entire purpose of a monopoly is to deny consumers choice and thereby price goods higher without having to provide comparable improved service or product. For example, if you had a monopoly on oil or potable water, you could charge whatever you wanted, because the cost to the economy of the people who need your oil would be so incredibly high, they'd pay anything to get it. Same thing with cable companies in the US. Many of them have a local monopoly and are able to charge higher prices because of it.

    The portrayal of China's economic slowdown in Western media might appear like propaganda for a few reasons:
    1. **Bias and Perception**: Western media often have biases that shape their reporting on China. These biases can stem from political, economic, or ideological differences between China and Western countries.
    2. **Geopolitical Tensions**: Geopolitical tensions between China and Western nations can influence how China's economic situation is reported. In times of tension, there may be a tendency to highlight negative aspects of China's economy.
    3. **Different Perspectives**: China's economic slowdown might be interpreted differently by Western media compared to Chinese media. Western media may emphasize certain aspects that align with their audience's interests or preconceptions.
    4. **Competition and Hegemony**: There could be elements of competition and perceived hegemony at play. Western countries may seek to maintain their economic dominance and portray China's slowdown as a sign of weakness.
    5. **Selective Reporting**: Media outlets may selectively report on China's economic indicators, focusing more on negative aspects while downplaying positive developments.
    However, it's essential to critically analyze news sources from both Western and Chinese perspectives to form a well-rounded understanding of China's economic situation.

    People or 'experts' who keep harping on how 'low' / 'slow' is the economic growth of China in recent years are either dumb or deliberately lying (or both).
    The reason is simple - the absolute SIZE of the Chinese economy today is multiple TIMES than it was 10 or 20 years ago.
    Hence, even an 'average' of 5% economic growth today would roughly be the same increase (in dollars amount) of a '10%' in the past.
    Just simple arithmetic.
    In 1984, China grew by 15.2%, and averaged over +10% annually through 2005, so 2023 growth dropping to a mere 5% is a big drop. Thing is, when China grew +15.2% in 1984, their economy was only $260 Billion USD (nominal), so they grew by +$40 Billion. In 2023, China's economy is $18 Trillion USD (nominal), so +5% growth adds +$900 Billion, 22.5 times greater than their 1984 growth and roughly 3.5 times the ENTIRE 1984 Chinese economy.
    In contrast, the USA will be lucky to add +$20 Billion to their economy, and it'll mostly be FIRE (Finance, Insurance & Real Estate) growth, rather than "real" industrial production and trade in goods. The UK is going into recession, Germany is in "technical" recession, and Japan has been ZERO growth for decades. Meanwhile, sanctioned Russia is expected to grow by +3%, faster than the USA.When people like Adrian Zeihan and Gordon Chang keeps being the nvited to talk and explain why the PRC is "collapsing", we, the informed people, can only wet our pants of laughing.

    First of all, I live in Europe, if you think I have any bias. This video is very COMMICAL.
    China's grownth is not over, quite the contrary, its just that "you guys" are still measuring China based on the Dollar... you are literally measuring and reporting on a ground that does not exist anymore in what relates to China.
    I will explain your mistake in a simple way, so that you can maybe understand:
    See, here in Europe we buy, for instance, a Car from Byd (our own car is from them), and pay in Euro, that payment generally goes through the Swift system, prone to tax, sanction, profiting and control of the US and then the EU by extension, and you are looking through those glasses.
    You are failing to account that now China is trading with Brazil, Russia and India (countries that are massively rich in Gas, Grains and Minerals) using their own, Chinese alternative for the Swift system, using Chinese Yuan instead of Dolar as the main currency. They completey cut off The US-EU financial shenanigans and dominance.
    So people buy a Car from Byd in Brazil for instance, pay in Brazilian Real (their currency), and the money goes through the Chinese system directly transforming it to Yuan when needed, completely skipping US influence, international taxes, etc.
    That's why US-EU sanctions do not mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHING anymore to those countries (and that's why RUSSIA's economy is booming despite the many sanctions against them), they basically freed themselves from the Dolar international dominance.
    Those countries are growing exponentially, outside the financial control of the US via the Dolar as international basic value (and its many traps that serve to keep US's influence of control over them).
    That's what's happening.
    Maybe you do know that but want to keep denying it, or maybe you actually do not know that, which is... weird, go figure.

    The domestic real estate sector plays a pivotal role in China's economy. However, since 2020, it has been under stringent regulation due to concerns about a potential financial crisis fueled by excessive debt. As a result, a slowdown in economic growth seems inevitable at some point. With a significant amount of capital trapped within the banking system and lacking alternative attractive investment outlets, deflationary pressures have emerged. I believe that China needs to cultivate emerging industries with high investment value to absorb the massive investments that were previously directed towards the real estate market

    Yeah right. China's current GDP is 5% as of 2024 and rose 5.2% in 2023 of 17.52 US trillion dollars.

    Since when 5.2% growth for the second largest economy (the largest if measured by PPP) becomes definition of being economically weak? Europe growth is barely 1%. None sense

      5.2%是假的,就2023年那状况哪来这么高的增长,我不知道你为什么会如此信任中国官方的统计,他们连真实的历史都不敢让中国人知道,他们编造很多谎言,我是中国人我比你更了解中国,中国今年的经济增长应该是-5.2%

    This video contains too much false information... Many interviewees said they only translated certain sentences and distorted the facts. If I didn't understand Chinese, I would really be misled by this video.

    They will be even more belligerent, as seen by their behavior against the Philippines, Vietnam, Taiwan, etc.
